Exciting Announcement: "Ranking of Kings" Anime Manga Inspires Brand-New Film Production

During a Thursday television special dedicated to the anime adaptation of Sōsuke Tōka's manga, "Ranking of Kings" (Ōsama Ranking), fans were thrilled to learn that a highly anticipated brand-new film has been officially green-lit for production.

The web manga revolves around the remarkable journey of Bojji, a deaf and powerless prince who faces immense challenges, unable even to wield a children's sword. Despite the doubts cast upon him as a "good-for-nothing prince" who could never become a king, Bojji tirelessly strives to fulfill his dream of becoming the world's greatest ruler.

Amidst his struggles, Bojji discovers an unlikely friendship in Kage, a literal shadow on the ground who inexplicably comprehends Bojji's feelings. Kage, once a member of the Kage assassin clan, now ekes out a living through thievery after the clan's near eradication. The narrative unfolds as Bojji matures through encounters with various individuals, starting with his fateful meeting with Kage.

Since May 2017, Tōka has been serializing the manga on the user-submitted manga website Manga Hack, captivating readers with this captivating tale. BookLive has also taken the initiative to release an English version of the manga, opening its enchanting world to a wider audience.

The "Ranking of Kings" anime series premiered in October 2021 and spanned two consecutive cours, captivating viewers with its gripping storytelling. Funimation and Crunchyroll streamed both the original Japanese broadcast and an English-dubbed version, allowing fans worldwide to immerse themselves in the extraordinary tale.

Adding to the excitement, "Ranking of Kings: The Treasure Chest of Courage" (Ōsama Ranking: Yūki no Takarabako) anime made its debut on April 13, enchanting audiences on Fuji TV's esteemed Noitamina programming block.

With the confirmation of the brand-new film, fans eagerly anticipate witnessing the continuation of Bojji's extraordinary journey, his growth, and the challenges that lie ahead. As "Ranking of Kings" conquers new frontiers, its timeless themes of friendship, perseverance, and self-discovery will undoubtedly captivate audiences once again on the grand cinematic stage
